Today we hear from Peter Hermann of BreatheAware. The company has a platform designed to help individuals change their behaviors to manage stress and improve health, leading to better individual lives and reduced burdens on the health system. He says some interesting things about the importance of trust in patient engagement, about collecting data to actually use it and get a result out of it, and, importantly, the value of just showing up sometimes. He says, “taking care of yourself is about showing up and doing something,” not necessarily hitting every metric put in front of us every time. It's a good lesson for us as patients in managing our own health and for providers thinking about how to best engage their patients and support them in their healthcare.
